OCEAN Celtic Quartet Song of Solstice: A Celtic Christmas concert
The OCEAN Celtic Quartet play music packed with pure pan-Celtic pizzazz, putting their unique spin on traditional songs and Cuttings original compositions, from soaring ballads and stirring sea chanteys to blazing fiddle and accordion tunes. The group has won over 25 Washington Area Music Awards, a #3 spot on the national Folk DJ Charts, and a triumphant appearance on NPRs Mountain Stage. They have a history of sold-out concerts at such venues as The Birchmere and The Kennedy Center.
Fairport Conventions Simon Nicol says they get right inside the spirit of the folk music of the British Isles, Steeleye Spans Maddy Prior calls their songwriting stunning, and the Washington Post calls them "Nothing short of spellbinding."
The OCEAN Celtic Quartet is led by composer and ethnomusicologist JENNIFER CUTTING (accordion and keyboards), a Washington Area Music Association Musician of the Year and Songwriter of the Year. OCEAN features the stunning vocalist CHRISTINE NOYES (formerly of the maritime music group Crab Alley), folklorist/vocalist/percussionist STEPHEN WINICK, and U.S. National Scottish Fiddle champion SEÁN HEELY. OCEAN is known for getting audiences up on their feet to dance to their electrifying Jigs and Reels; and, in the next moment, raising goosebumps with their soaring vocals and otherworldly Celtic beauty. Add a penchant for deep research and scholarship, and a great sense of humor, and you have a band that will captivate all ages.
There's nothing else like it...OCEAN is Celtic Music for Ancient Moderns!
